Re: Around the league: June 2014
I don't doubt Kidd would've stayed in BK had they met his demands. But he probably had Milwaukee in his back pocket. You think he was turned down by BK, then just got on the phone with the new owner in Milwaukee (who he's close with and was once his financial advisor) and took at shot in the dark at...

Re: Around the league: June 2014
I honestly don't think that played much of a part in anything. Kidds made 3 times what Fisher made as a player, who knows how much more than Kerr. This was about Kidd angling to take over in Milwaukee, probably knowing he was on thin ice with BK and they wouldn't give him that kind of power.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason
All things being equal, we're as attractive as any team as that article states. I like that we have a plan and are trying to get a meeting. Getting a meeting could legitimize us as a free agent destination. If they turns us down even for a meeting it could hurt the city as being too small for FAs of...

Re: Around the league: June 2014
Kidd's always been an opportunist. He's gotten coaches fired when he didn't like them, he's dogged it and forced his way off of teams. He's almost always one step ahead, and jumped ship from NY to take the coaching job with BK when it was available. But he knows last year was the high water mark (as...

Re: Suns Summer League 2014
It's usually hard for bigs to look good in SL. Usually it's a guard/forward show with little post up opportunities for bigs. At the very least, I want to see Len blocking shots, rebounding, running the floor and finishing.

Re: Around the league: June 2014
Sounds like he wanted something similar to Rivers and SVG. Interested to see where this will lead.
I think he sees the writing on the wall and is jumping ship to greener pastures.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason
I'd love for us to be the Spurs, get both guys to buy in for the good of the team and sign for 10mil each. Here's the other thing, is Dragic going to ask for the max and are we going to give it to him? Is he a max guy?? Let's not let emotion get in the way of a sound decision. He'll be 29 at the end...

Re: Suns Draft Day 2014
Solid B draft. You can look back in 5 years and say...man we should've taken Rodney Hood and Gary Harris. But I think we did OK. Warren is going to score. That's a skill you need in the league. Will he be a starter or a bench guy? Ennis is a pure point. What separates him from Marshall is he's a bit...

Re: Suns News: The Offseason
Yea I was thinking about Ish Smith too. His contract isn't guaranteed so Ennis will probably take his spot. I like Ish a lot, especially his speed with the ball, which Ennis doesn't have. But Ennis will be much more of a true PG so Bledsoe, Dragic and even Archie can play off him.

CDR is nice.

Re: Suns Draft Day 2014
Yea I just don't get the feeling like we really missed out on anyone. It's not like 2012 when we took Marshall and guys like Henson, Harkless or Terrence Jones were there. This draft was more top heavy, with some solid role players sprinkled the rest of the way. I won't say I'm underwhelmed like whe...

I'm not even as high on either of those guys so I'm cool with Warren.

Re: Suns Draft Day 2014
Overall, solid draft. We added skilled guys at their positions, added depth in case we lose guys to free agency and didn't seem to whiff on anyone. I don't think we hit any homeruns but aside from some kind of blockbuster trade, there weren't any homeruns to be hit.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason
That's GM speak. I like our picks, but Warren and Ennis are insurance for sure. And Green is also a FA next season.

Re: Suns Draft Day 2014
I like it. He's a basketball player, played against great competition on a great keep in Europe. Type of guy you take late in the 1st round. I'll bet we stash him for a year.
